The document discusses generational characteristics of Millennials born between 1982-2000:
1) Millennials are the first generation to grow up with the internet and social media being integrated into daily life from a young age. They are more comfortable with technology and digital communication than older generations.
2) Research shows Millennials are confident, achievement-oriented, and open-minded but also feel pressured and rule-abiding. They seek structure, teamwork and fun in education.
3) Some critics argue Millennials are less knowledgeable about history but more engaged with popular culture and current events shared online with peers. Others note both benefits and distractions of new technologies.Collective prompt q1

The document discusses how youth can be seen as a collective identity. It explores how youth share experiences like adolescence, education, finding work, and experimentation. Youth also share attributes like innocence, frustration, and hope. The document then analyzes how media historically represented youth both positively and negatively. More recently, youth have been portrayed more negatively in stereotypical ways as rebellious or part of problematic subcultures. The document argues that these representations reflect societal fears and fill youth identities with adult interests and agendas.CMS 498: Media

Representations of British youth in media have changed over time to reflect contemporary subcultures. In the 1930s, youth were portrayed as well-mannered, while the 1950s saw the rise of rock music and rebellion against adults. The 1960s-70s showed mods, rockers and hippies, often fighting or protesting the Vietnam War. Today, gangs, drinking culture and sexualization of females are common portrayals. While some representations are negative, youth subcultures have historically challenged social norms through their style and behavior.1 5199-pop-culture-intro

This document discusses public engagement with science and the politics involved. It examines different approaches to engagement like consensus conferences and debates. However, it notes that engagement activities often face criticism for having limited issues, marginal involvement of the public, and resistance from institutions. There is a debate between representing the public and bringing expertise. While engagement aims to be democratic, it can also be a means of legitimation. The document argues we should recognize disagreement and critique as part of engagement rather than assuming consensus will be reached.NYSCSS 2014 - Not As Savvy As You Think: What Do We Really Know About This G...

- Uses and Gratifications Theory posits that people actively seek out media to fulfill certain needs rather than passively receiving media messages.
- Cultivation Theory argues that heavy television viewing can influence viewers' beliefs about the world by cultivating exaggerated perceptions of issues like violence.
- Agenda-Setting Theory holds that media can influence the public agenda by drawing attention to certain issues and making them more salient.
- Gatekeeping refers to how editors and producers control the flow of news by selecting stories based on perceived audience interest and importance.15 October 2012

This document discusses generational differences in organizations and the modern multi-generational workforce. It notes that there are currently four generations that make up the workforce - Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y. Each generation has distinct attitudes, behaviors, and communication styles shaped by the significant world events that occurred when they were around 10 years old. While these differences can lead to misunderstandings or "collisions", multi-generational teams are beneficial as they bring a diversity of perspectives and are more flexible and innovative. Understanding, acceptance, and open communication are keys to overcoming generational differences in the workplace. The most successful organizations value different perspectives and tap into the talents that each generation offers.Decolonising the Canon: Contextualising Black Studies in Britain by Lisa Aman...

This document discusses efforts to decolonize and diversify university curricula. It notes that currently curricula are often dominated by knowledge produced by upper-class European men. Student movements are calling for curricula that are less "white" and address non-Western perspectives and experiences with racism. The document advocates for incorporating works by Black theorists and embracing Black feminist epistemologies to dismantle Eurocentric approaches and better reflect intersectional lived experiences. A decolonized curriculum would disrupt the dominance of Western knowledge and instead value knowledge from a variety of cultural perspectives.Goodrich Mass Comm Final Presentation

Millennials seek meaningful work and challenge to prove themselves. They enjoy social interaction and responsibility but resent a lack of experience being acknowledged. Millennials are more job mobile and less respectful of authority compared to older generations. While most Millennials are less church-connected than previous generations, they consider themselves just as spiritual. Millennials want churches to focus on social justice issues rather than theological objections to controversial topics.Lesson 01

This document provides an overview of the sociological perspectives on youth development. It discusses how issues affecting youth have typically been viewed through individual lenses of risk/protective factors rather than considering broader societal influences. The document then discusses key sociological thinkers like Durkheim who analyzed how social structures and integration impact suicide rates. It argues youth issues are best understood by examining power dynamics, social changes, and how some groups become labeled as deviant. The history of youth work is also summarized, linking its origins to social and economic upheavals in the late 1800s and how perspectives on youth have continued evolving over time in response to broader social and cultural shifts.Millennials and the Church
